Hi Guys
My application process was completed in March ... as I see panic and anxiety in current applicants, I wish to share my experience. I have gone through same levels of stress throughout the application which is why I stalked this forum for a long time to gain some insights from the experiences of others.
From what my file went through and from what others have shared, I figured out that the entire procedure is consistent for majority of applications at NDVO. My file was first moved to Mississauga and then to NDVO after 2 months. That move made me really sad because the time frame at which files are processed at Mississauga is way off from NDVO. Files processed at CPCM can expect PPR in 2-3 months while the ones at NDVO took much longer. They say less complicated files are dealt as CPCM just to share the file load at NDVO (I thought my file was pretty straightforward and it still it ended up at NDVO via CPCM)

So here is the basic scenario --- majority of files at NDVO are handled according to APP REC date Sydney ( some complicated pnes that need further evaluation, interiew, etc can be left behind).... so it doesnt matter whether your file went directly to NDVO or via CPCM it will be attended according to APP REC Sydney. Mine was much late transfer than the rest of my group and was still processed quickly, thus I received PPR with others who all belonged to same timeline. The date of file transfer does not make a big difference, may be someone can just receive a pre-arrival little early, but the final decision will be made according to APP REC. My pre arrival was latest one in my group .. and DM/PPR with all others. PPR is sent in batches. NDVO is quite popular for batch processing.
Things are delayed due to COVID 19, but I assume that the general procedure will stay the same. So pay attention to which month of APP REC your file belong to and expect some update in that group.
P.S. this is what I figured out for how majority of files were processed at NDVO.
GOOD LUCK ALL!!!

Well .. yes, they have not started processing any of the October files. I think they are not even done with AUG SEPT guys. It's the COVID thats postponing everythin. APP REC will change back to IN PROCESS only when an officer starts working on your file.. till then its just sitting in the pile. APP REC simply means, they have accepted your file but the actual evaluation is still pending.

December applicant here.
File transferred to NDVO in Feb.

Got my GCMS notes today

1) Application status reason says Inventory. What does that mean?

2) Eligibility, security not started. Criminality passed.
In a mail, I got as a reply to a webform, it said that Background verifications are in progress. What does that mean and how does it relate to the above or are they separate?

3) Medical says In Progress on the first page and sent in another. (Does this mean they sent us a letter for the medicals or that I sent the medicals to them? I just want to confirm because I had sent the medicals to them in February and it is still not updated.)

1) Application status reason says Inventory. What does that mean? Still waiting for assignment to an officer

2) Eligibility, security not started. Criminality passed.

What does that mean and how does it relate to the above or are they separate? - Eligibility and security check is the last to get updated. Once it is assigned to the officer you will see the progress on this.

3) Medical says In Progress on the first page and sent in another. (Does this mean they sent us a letter for the medicals or that I sent the medicals to them? I just want to confirm because I had sent the medicals to them in February and it is still not updated.)
- Medical is waiting to get checked and verified, once verified, the next will be Medical Passed. Just hang in there.

Just a question, I am guessing you must have completed Biometrics already. But the status doesnt mention about Biometrics completion ?. It doesnt mention for me so just wondering if that is normal.

Hello everyone,
We received my GCMS notes 2 days ago. When we compared it to the ones requested before the lockdown, the only difference between the two is the Security which was "Not started" is now "In progress"
The Notes state the following:
**RROC Review** Crim passed - I am satisfied that PA is not inadmissible to Canada. Criminality Decision passed.

Does anyone know what happens next? (Irrespective of the delays caused by Covid)
